Question

find the sum of length of bases of trapezium whose altitude is 17 cm and whose area is 0.85 m square

Answer 1

1/2(sum of parallel side ) *h = area

by putting values u will get

bases sum =10 cm

Answer 2

The sum of the length of the bases of the trapezium is 10m.

Given :

Area of trapezium = 0.85 m2

Length of altitude = 17 cm

To find :

The sum of the length of bases of trapezium

Solution :

We know that,

Area of trapezium = 1/2(sum of parallel side)* (distance between parallel sides)

Substituting the values, we get

0.85=1/2(sum of parallel sides) * 0.17m

Sum of parallel sides = $(2*0.85)/0.17$

Sum of parallel sides = 10m

Thus, the sum of the length of the bases of the trapezium is 10m.
